Chef de Cuisine


Behold, the kitchen nerve center of Chez Turley!

I'm so ashamed: this used to be a four-star restaurant, the kind of place you booked six months in advance, and we've reduced it to a toaster oven and a microwave.

This house had two kitchens when we started, and now we can't even boil water. The upstairs kitchen is entirely gutted, of course, and even the downstairs kitchen is mostly out of commission. There's no commercial gas stove any more, and the big under-counter fridge never worked. We're making do with a 60s-era fridge (in harvest gold), some shelves, and these deluxe appliances. (We didn't even have the toaster oven until this week.)

On the plus side: we get to eat out a lot.
